That's not digiKam's fault! :-D
I had to compile / calculate / train a classifier for eye detection last 
summer. My laptop was running at full speed 1 week... all the time. I took 
the time and went on a holiday this week :-) But I also was a little bit 
scared, because 1 week is really a long time for my old laptop here. But he 
survived it.
I don't think compiling digiKam will harm your system...
Do you had to eat all the food after that? What food was it? Special computer 
cooling food :-) ?
